"It's all vintage glamour (with an update) at Barry's Downtown Prime, the steakhouse in the new Circa Resort in Downtown Las Vegas. Chef Barry Dakake has been a fixture on the Las Vegas scene, having run Scotch 80 Prime and N9NE Steakhouse at the Palms. The crowd here is a mix of people who loved his cooking at those restaurants, locals who love to discover the newest and greatest in steakhouses (and then keep coming back). He's thrown in some surprises, like a crispy and melty lobster and shrimp potsticker and a braised beef short rib with horseradish mashed potatoes and harissa that continues to haunt our dreams. A few fun sides are not-to-miss: tater tots and poutine gravy, bang-bang crispy cauliflower (why is this on the menu? We stopped questioning after the first bite), and potato gnocchi with white truffle cream." - Andrea Bennett
